First, we plot the presence/absence data from the Nishikawa dataset for sauries.
Then, we build the basic sauries model with all the predictors included. Note that the environmental predictors are mean values over 1956-1981.
## [1] "training AUC: 0.9724"
## [1] "testing AUC: 0.9682"
Then, we extrapolate for the rest of \(40^{\circ}N\)-\(40^{\circ}S\) and present seasonal distribution maps. The distribution maps are shown side-by-side with the Nishikawa maps.
And, unlike yellowfin tuna, the adult sauries have a more restricted range. We show the plot with hatches in areas that have adult probabilities < 0.01.
## [1] "training AUC: 0.9718"
## [1] "testing AUC: 0.9688"
Again, each seasonal distribution map is shown side-by-side with its corresponding Nishikawa seasonal chart.
For this section, we use Model 1 (full model). We use the same \(10 \times 10\) grid.
Similar to the yellowfin tuna, for each season, we associate the \(10 \times 10\) grid with the \(1 \times 1\) grid cells. Then, we limit the area to \(10 \times 10\) grid cells with sampling points.
We only leave \(10 \times 10\) grid cells that have sampling points within a certain % area threshold. We first do this for a more conservative 25% threshold.
Let’s also visualize that side-by-side with the hatched plot that’s filtered to just the remaining \(10 \times 10\) grid cells.
We now put hatches over areas of lower confidence.
We also do it for a more liberal 10% threshold.
Then, we replicate this across the 3 other seasons…
